HoursOf.com

Three months in, and significantly more focused than in my previous post. Instead of attacking 2 businesses and a third sidea (side idea), I am fully focused on building HoursOf.com, an application to find open places at any time. I’ve researched the competitors (big & small), and I think I can put together a better experience and better content. I’m looking to launch in a small geography (Hartford & West Hartford, CT) in early 2013, and iterate quickly in search of Customer Validation. Beyond the product itself, some basic questions are:

Are we acquiring customers? (and how many)

How much does it cost to acquire them?

Is it scalable?

When will it profitable?

What, if any, investment will be needed to get there?
